Chapter 280: 280: There's No Need for You to Fear Ye Qilan_1

Su Hongxing stood silently between the two men.

If they wanted her to stay like this till the end of time, she’s fine with it, after all, the men’s time was far more valuable than hers.

At this sight, the policeman immediately understood. This was probably a lover’s dispute.

“Miss Su, are you being detained by this gentleman?” the policeman asked as his gaze fixed intensly on Ye Qilan.

As Ye Qilan turned to look at him, he immediately felt a chill on his face, and even his palms began to sweat.

“Nothing of the sort. Mr. Ye is my ex-husband, and he’s about to get married. In fact, his wedding is all the rage right now. He’s so busy, he wouldn’t have the spare time to detain me.”, Su Hongxing said, glancing in the direction of Cao Shiyu: “Look, there’s my ex-husband’s bride-to-be, isn’t she beautiful?”

Following Su Hongxing’s gaze, the policeman saw a young girl in a light pink dress standing there. With bright eyes and a refined aura, she was obviously a well-bred lady.

Subconsciously the policeman looked at Xiao Ji, unsure how to proceed with this so-called abduction case.

Su Hongxing had made it clear, Ye Qilan hadn’t kidnapped her.

So, was it time for him to call it a day?

Xiao Ji’s face darkened slightly, he solemnly said, “Xingxing, you don’t have to be scared of Ye Qilan, you can tell the officer the truth…”

“What I said just now is the truth, let it go, don’t escalate this situation any further.”, Su Hongxing said and then locked her eyes on Ye Qilan.

Ye Qilan was pleased with Su Hongxing’s response. He knew she was a discernible woman.

Despite Xiao Ji’s resistance, Su Hongxing slapped his hand away and freed herself from his grasp.

Shaking off Xiao Ji, she proceeded to break free from Ye Qilan’s hold.

This time, Ye Qilan didn’t give her a hard time, he instead said to Xiao Ji: “You’ve intruded on my private property, I can sue you!”

“Ye Qilan, don’t be so petty. Xiao Ji didn’t do it on purpose, do you really need to stoop to his level?” Su Hongxing said, and then turned to Xiao Ji, “Come on, I’ll see you out.”

Xiao Ji and the policeman exchanged a look. At this point, their presence was no longer needed. After all, Su Hongxing had made it clear that she wasn’t being detained or kidnapped.

Although unhappy, there was nothing they could do.

Normally, Ye Qilan wouldn’t have let Su Hongxing escort Xiao Ji out, however he had to behave with the police present.

And so, together with Ye Qilan, Su Hongxing saw Xiao Ji and the policeman out.

Just as Ye Qilan was about to lead Su Hongxing back, she suddenly said, “Xiao Ji, I haven’t visited your company yet. I’m free today, so how about I visit your company?”

Ye Qilan’s expression changed ever so slightly as his piercing gaze landed on Su Hongxing’s face.

Unfazed by his displeasure, Su Hongxing turned towards him and flashed a smile, “Ye Qilan, you wouldn’t hold me from going out now, would you?”

The question wouldn’t have been a big deal normally, but considering Xiao Ji had recently reported a crime and the police were still present, the implications were heavy.

Ye Qilan’s thin lips tightened into a straight line, his jaw tensed, and his eyes turned icy as he stared at Su Hongxing.

Su Hongxing’s smile deepened. She turned to Xiao Ji and said, “Xiao Ji, how about we get the officer to give us a lift?”
